Sensorics and Big Data analysis
The original concept and MTorres Vision are to transform manual and heavy tasks with extremely high-quality standards into automated processes. Automating processes means not only providing the tailored equipment for the specific process but also being able to upgrade and improve the effectivity of the machine, adapting it to new process, materials or regulations, thus extending its lifetime.
The introduction of new sensors and on-line quality information into the process makes possible now that current availability and productivity issues could be predicted and detected before they really happen. This means that Mtorres machines could self-diagnose and in the long term self-tune and self-repair. For that purpose Mtorres has developed a platform that gathers the relevant machine data, calculate the key process indicators, trigger predictive insights dealing not only with maintenance but also with process improvements
TORRESfactory is a data acquisition and processing platform for MTorres machines. Specific analysis algorithms are programmed in order to
- Maximize the productivity and efficiency of the machines
- Extend the lifetime of the asset
- Foresee and prevent recurrent failures and unplanned stops
- Optimize the maintenance plan of the machines
- Speed up new process developments of the customers
We collect machine data and key variables seamless and in parallel to the machine operation. The data is gathered using TORRESfactory Edge device. Torresfactory software Apps extract efficiency and maintenance insights from data and present the machine summary indicators in a dashboard as well as send the machine related information to customer third party’s applications (MES, ERP) using a standard machine API.
